Federal election 2013: 612 ABC Brisbane

They've campaigned, rallied and kissed babies a-plenty on the hustings, so have their efforts to get themselves over the political line paid off? Get the results as they happen with 612 ABC Brisbane's coverage of the 2013 federal election.

The electorate of Brisbane is one of Queensland's most marginal federal seats. Covering the Brisbane CBD and inner city suburbs on the northern side of the Brisbane River, the electorate extends along the Brisbane River from the Gateway Bridge to Milton.

With a backdrop of urban development and rapidly expanding manufacturing and construction industries, the rural federal seat of Forde, 30 kilometres south-west of Brisbane, is a vibrant mix of town and country.

A new seat conjured by the redistribution ahead of the 2010 election from a disparate collection of communities in southern Queensland, Wright stretches from the western Gold Coast through the remnant rural areas between Logan City and the NSW border and around to include the Lockyer Valley Council area west of Ipswich.
